That I understood, just wondering if thats kinda how he wanted to do it.

you could make a bunch of different shapes with #rotor style ducts. And those look pretty cool too.

o be quiet!!

drksth · 01-29-2004, 08:18 PM

ok, my basic idea is to run the air one way into the heatsink, blowing air throught the little lines. will this be enough?? i was also thinking of a way to blow air directly over the cpu but will that casue the heatsink to not work correctly if it is raised?? :shrug: sorry about he typing, im on my dads Mac and the KB is tighter.

if you dont have the heatsink on the processor entirely, you WILL blow out your cpu.

no question.

in less than a second...

Ive done it on an athlon 1200 before, it gets so hot so fast that it simply frys itself and the mobo. Im talking like 900 F hot... cause I made the mistake of touching the core about 10 seconds after turning it off...

If the heatsink is "raised", that means its not working at all.
